I have a FG 20" (the only thing on it FG that is not Magpul is my Tactical Link assist lever) and think it is beautiful so I am sad that FG is going away. I got a bunch of FG PMAGS for it, but thought they looked stupid until I put black floor plates on them.

I hear ya - I just built my first FG build and it is now my favorite color
I bought just about everything FG back when DSG had the foliage green sale (that was awesome) |

ordered ten more fde from copes for 89.99 shipped
brings the total to 130 pmags |

I finally cobbled together all my Foliage Green parts for my next build. They're in a box in my safe. Had to hunt down some of it. Sucks that Magpul is supposedly discontinuing it.

Recently I got three lancers for free and I have to say so far I'm not disappointed by them and I like my colors so in the future if I somehow find the need for more mags I might just pull the trigger on Lancers if magpul doesn't come back with colors. |

I won't be making any more pmag purchases if I can't get them in FDE. Magpul's loss I guess. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Hopefully Magpul will come around and make some FDE Gen 3's, since Gen 3's drop free in Tavors. A Tavor is high on my want list, in FDE of course. I won't be making any more pmag purchases if I can't get them in FDE. Magpul's loss I guess. There are plenty online. PSA and DSG have been having sales on 10 packs. |

Just found this web chatter from 2010 mentioning that Magpul discontinued Foliage Green. Back then. I'm beginning to wonder if this is true. All the colors seem pretty plentiful still. Clever marketing ploy or ?
ETA: link duh. |

You're now making magazines for Steyr AUG's, but won't be making colors. Are you guys losing your shit? What's next? Discontinue FDE and make FG42 PMAG's? Foliage is based around the ACU camouflage that the US Army is moving away from. 1. I was under the impression that ACU with UCP is NOT going away anytime soon. Do you know when production might come to an end? 2. "Also, based on demand and to maintain consistency across our line of magazine products, all non-black MOE magazine color options will be discontinued by the end of 2014." Your website seems to be contradicting the information you are providing. To clarify, sometime before the end of the year we will: - Discontinue Foliage Green in ALL products. - Discontinue all non-Black colors (FDE, FOL, ODG) in the MAG570/571 GEN M2 MOE PMAGs. Basically, all of our magazines models will be available in Black only. However, all those SKUs are still viable and in production at the moment to allow Consumers time to purchase what they need. |

Too bad on the FG being discontinued... while the color may have been intended to compliment UCP, which is going away (over the next several YEARS), it is still a good color in and of itself... and makes a nice mix and match with both FDE and ODG...

IMHO foliage is perfect for here in michigan...besides its just badass. I hit dsg arms going light green sale to complete ts lat build.

I thought OD and FDE would never go away. That's a shame guys. Lancer it is.

Dumb idea Magpul. Why limit a consumer's choice? I just finished adding stealth grey to my AR. I already have plenty of black mags, and if stealth grey pmags were made Id buy a dozen....just because. Now I dont have that option...so ill stick to black and I wont have to buy more just to match. Your lose in sales. I think thats whats going to happen with others in a year or two when OD and FDE are not available. People will just stick with what they have, or buy Lancers..again dumb idea

So why make stocks, grips and handguards in colors other than black?
Just like Henry Ford said, "customers can have any color Pmag they'd like, as long as it's black." Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

[#25]
Just make less of them and raise the price. Sheesh.
Sorry Magpul—I love your products, but this is dumb. |

Having just started an AR build in Foliage Green, hearing that it's going away is very sad. Seems there's a demand for it; why discontinue it?

View Quote Foliage was their worst seller, unfortunately it's my favorite color of their products as well...it matches the nature here in the NE. I'm glad I bought all of my FG before they started dropping the color |

I really like my new carbine length MOE SL handguard and would definitely consider putting them on my midlengths that currently wear MOE handguards... except FG isn't going to be offered.
Hey, Magpul - how about offering FG for a limited time once a year for those of us that want it? Don't carry it as an in stock item, just offer it direct. |

I wonder how much colored PMAGs will go for once they are out of production, I wonder if it will be anything like straight PMAG 20s.

I have two large air tight containers full of OD PMAG's in the packages. Woot. Bring it on. I think not, I bought them for my own use, for this very type of thing. Not that I foresaw such am idiotic marketing move. Or maybe it's a genius move. |

View Quote Magpul may not be shipping but it appears there is still a ton of it out there. One of the non-approved vendors has real time inventory. As of today, 2/5/15, this is what this one vendor has in stock: FDE non-window: 46,051 FDE window: 15,182 OD non-window: 30,331 OD window: 31,667 FOL non-window: 35,332 FOL window: 11,636 In addition to those numbers posted above, -> DSG still shows windowed FDE and OD in stock. -> Aim Surplus shows FOL windowed in stock. -> Another non-approved vendor shows all colors of window and non-window still available. -> Another non-approved vendor shows OD non-window, FOL windowed, and FDE windowed still available. And I imagine there are many, many, more vendors with inventory still on hand. I could be wrong, but colored Gen 2 PMAGs may be available for sometime to come especially with everyone so tickled pink about dyeing sand mags. |

I'm enjoying the new stealth gray on my rifle but would like a matching mag. Oh well, guess the black will have to do.

Spray paint, now if only someone would offer a matching FDE instead of having to mix brown and green as you spray it.
